Sometimes the system will reboot instead of powering off, sometimes it will not power off and sometimes it works fine. I cant be sure if this started when I got that machine or when I upgraded to the Xorg that requires dbus and hal as I got the machine at the same time. I'd just put it down to the Acer BIOS but I know that Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64 does not have this problem on the same machine. Matthew
